Search Results: friends with the girl you had a crush on

My crush had a „stranger“ crush on me for YEARS after briefly talking once in class and used to stare or take glances repeatedly when he saw me and listened to my conversations with others. One day he saw me interacting with a guy who tried to strike up a conversation trying to find out where I’m coming from, possibly flirting with me (due to my ethnic background). I was polite but short since I was busy that day and don’t like talking to random strangers. After that, I found out my crush looked up a few of my friends on LinkedIn. The next time I saw him he didn’t look at me like he usually did and from then on he barely looked at me anymore. A few months later he deleted the playlist he made for me a year ago.

Why did his interest in me drop all of a sudden to zero? I’m pretty sure he knew from the very beginning that I’m not the most outgoing person so seeing me being shy with strangers shouldn’t come as a surprise to him. How is being shy with strangers such a big deal for someone who has admired me for YEARS?

His friend told me that he was really into me for years. He would sneak glances when I was distracted but never found the courage to come up and talk to me. Months later he met a girl in a lecture in college (which I also attended) that started flirting with him and he confidently flirted back. From then on he started dressing nicer to this lecture. Why didn’t he ever put in the effort for me if he had a crush on me for years?

So I have explained the before in my past posts, I went to this breakfast thing at our local public high school. We go to private school. About halfway through dinner my crush his sister and her friend decided to show up. His sister and her friend went up to me and said, why don’t you go talk to him he is right there. Of course I was embarrassed, but they got him to go to this hallway. He started running around the halls and he doesn’t know this place at all. He came back eventually and his sister and her friend left to go back to the lunchroom. These girls who are a few years younger than us came and got into all of this. One of them talked to him for a minute but he wouldn’t talk to her unless I was gone, so I went around the corner. The girls left and we talked a little bit. He eventually said I know you like me but I can’t see us together. Ik it sounds bad but there’s more. So he left the hallway and I guess he talked to his sis for a sec. His sister, her friend, and those girls came into the hallway. His sister said forget everything he just said wait on him he will come around. He really does like you he talks about you all the time. He says how your pretty etc. He never says anything bad about you. The reason he said that was because he can’t date or like anyone because of his grades rn. The girl who talked to him earlier said that he said he likes me and stuff too. I’m really confused what should I do.

Have been slightly flirting with my stranger crush for years (just smiling and looking from afar) but nothing ever happened. Recently he has started staring at me very blatantly and he doesn’t even look away when caught. I found out that he just entered a relationship with a girl he went on vacation with and they lost pictures of themselves together on social media frequently. I feel like he still wants to talk and get to know me but why if he has a fresh relationship? And don’t tell me he just wants to be friends, he is not that kind of guy
